Live fortune telling: Sending a top star to prison right from the start.

"Therefore, the initial assessment is that this is most likely a horrific family annihilation case."

As soon as Ou Rong finished speaking, Cha Ming was shocked: "Eight people from one family... This is too cruel! What deep-seated hatred could there be?"

Everyone in the conference room frowned, and the atmosphere grew increasingly heavy.

Lu Jiaheng's face was grim as he asked in a deep voice, "Has the cause of death been determined?"

After composing herself, Ou Rong said seriously, "Each skeleton has obvious cut marks on its ribs or pelvis. The shape and depth of the wounds indicate that the death was caused by a stab wound to the abdomen."

"However, one thing is very strange. None of the skeletons showed any obvious signs of resistance. Judging from the distribution of wounds and the stress on the bones, they seemed to be in a state of being completely unprepared or unable to resist when they were attacked."

Upon hearing this, Fang Jinhan fell into deep thought.

Caught off guard or unable to resist?

What exactly caused this situation?

Everyone discussed the topic, each expressing their own opinions.

The older forensic investigator, Zhu Ruoxin, suddenly spoke up: "Could it be that they were restrained beforehand during the attack, so they were unable to resist?"

The portrait artist, who had been silent all along, shook his head and offered his opinion.

"It's also possible that the incident happened so suddenly that they didn't have time to react."

Lu Jiaheng frowned, his expression grave. "Have the DNA database comparisons been completed?"

The case is currently at a standstill, and the investigation can only proceed if the identity of the skeleton is known.

Start by examining the interpersonal relationships of the owner of the skeleton, and investigate those with whom he had conflicts or entanglements of interest.

By using their identity information, we can pinpoint their activity patterns before their death, trace their last movements before disappearing, and investigate possible locations where they were murdered.

If the identity is unknown, everything is like groping in the dark, with no clues. Therefore, it is urgent to determine the identity of the skeleton as soon as possible.

Ou Rong shook her head helplessly: "It's still in progress. Some of the extracted DNA is damaged, and the database comparison process is also very complicated, so it will take more time. But don't worry, I will report back as soon as there are results."

Lu Jiaheng could only nod.

……

A burly man sat on a wooden chair, watching television with a relaxed expression.

When the news of "eight skeletons unearthed at a construction site" came into view, his pupils contracted sharply, his teacup paused at his lips, and then he slowly put it down.

He seemed to be thinking about some mundane daily matters, but the whitening of his knuckles from the exertion betrayed his inner unease.

He quickly got up and looked around the house, scrutinizing every corner and every item.

He calmly walked to the wardrobe, his movements steady, and took out the clothes one by one, picking out a few lightweight and practical items, folding them neatly and putting them into his travel bag.

He then opened the drawer, took out the little cash he had and a few documents, carefully checked them, and stuffed them into the bag.

After packing, I slung my bag over my shoulder and walked out of the house at a leisurely pace.

His car was parked quietly in the yard, its body somewhat old and covered in dust.

Just as he opened the car door, an old voice came from behind him.

"Little Xue, where are you going?"

Xue Liang turned around and saw that it was Grandma Zhu from the village.

Grandma Zhu is over seventy years old and is known in the village for her warm heart, always taking good care of her neighbors.

Xue Liang nodded slightly, a perfectly timed smile on his face, and spoke in a calm tone.

"Grandma Zhu, the wheat harvest is good this year. Go out and have some fun for a few days."

But the moment he turned around, his eyes instantly turned dejected, and his smile vanished without a trace.

Grandma Zhu watched his departing figure, her heart filled with doubt.

She muttered, "This child usually seems so steady and reliable. Going out to play is a good thing, so why is he in such a hurry?"

As the car drove out of the village, Xue Liang's thoughts remained unclear.

I thought these secrets would remain dormant forever as time went by.

But unexpectedly, those remains were brought back to light.

He knew this day would come the moment that piece of land was auctioned off.

I believe the police will soon follow the clues and find him.

But he was prepared.

An hour later, the car slowly stopped in front of the flower shop, where the shop owner was carefully arranging the bouquets.

The shop door was gently pushed open, and the bell on the door rang crisply.

The owner looked up, a professional smile on his face, and greeted him warmly, "Welcome! Sir, what kind of flowers would you like?"

Xue Liang walked into the store, his gaze slowly sweeping over the bouquets before finally saying, "I want a bouquet of roses and a bouquet of carnations."

The shop owner quickly began selecting roses, smiling as he said, "Alright! Look at these roses, they're so beautiful and vibrant, perfect for a girlfriend. These carnations were also carefully chosen this morning, they're very fresh, are they for an elder?"

He didn't speak, he just nodded.

The boss looked at him with a hint of melancholy, as if he were being pulled by some emotion, so he didn't say anything more.

Handing him the wrapped bouquet, she sincerely said, "I'm sure they'll love the flowers."

Xue Liang took the bouquet, his fingers gently caressing the petals as if drawing strength from them.

"Thank you." After saying that, he paid and turned around with the bouquet in his arms.

The sunlight was warm, and his figure looked somewhat lonely.

Then we drove to the incense and candle shop.

The shopkeeper skillfully selected incense and candles for him, muttering some words as he did so, while Xue Liang simply nodded mechanically in response.

After paying, he put his things in the back seat, started the car again, and drove towards the mountain where the two most important women in his life were buried.

Upon arriving at the cemetery, Xue Liang walked heavily toward the familiar tombstone.

On the tombstone, the photos of Ah Xiang and Ah Nai are exceptionally clear in the sunlight.

Ah Xiang's smile remained radiant, and Grandma's eyes were full of love.

He slowly squatted down, took out a clean cloth from his pocket, and gently wiped the tombstone.

"Ah Xiang, Ah Grandma, I've come to see you."

He placed roses and carnations in front of the tombstone, lit incense and candles, and wisps of smoke rose up, carrying his thoughts to the distance.

"Ah Xiang, do you remember we said we'd go see the sea together? That sea we've always longed for, I haven't taken you yet, but this time, I'll take you."

"Grandma, I will never be able to eat the food you made again, but I will always remember the taste."

He gently stroked the photo on the tombstone, saying, "I won't be able to visit your graves next year."

As he uttered those words, it seemed as if he had used up all his strength, and tears welled up in his eyes.

"When I go down there, facing a murderer, will you despise me?"

"Over the years, I've been all alone, and sometimes I feel really tired. I want to go and be with you, but I'm afraid you won't want me anymore."

……

The DNA matching process is lengthy and arduous, and every step must be performed flawlessly.

Ou Rong carefully extracted the DNA remaining on the bone. After countless amplifications and analyses, the database comparison results finally emerged.

When matching information appeared on the screen, Ou Rong quickly organized the comparison results and related reports.

He hurried toward Lu Jiaheng's office.

He raised his hand and knocked on the door.

"Come in." Lu Jiaheng's steady and powerful voice came from inside.
